Hey!!! I know that I have been absent for a long time, and I still have to blog about our NY visit....but hopefully sometime soon ;)
Life has been pretty crazy in the last couple of weeks, with Indelible shipping next week and my PhD exams...but I hope to be more active soonish. I am also preparing the Indelible blog hop (without any precise dates) in July, so if you have any plans and projects with it that you want to share, please e-mail me :)

Back to the Spring Quilt Market, here are some more photos I snapped there (I am still pretty much so mad that I didn't have better planned my time in order to actually see everything and meet more people)...

this is me starring at the most incredible work of Sharon Schamber!!! She and her daughter, Christy are soooooo talented and theirs quilts are a pure perfection!!!

couldn't believe that this piece was all done by Shanon's magical hands-colored, embroidered-beyond amazing!

me with Pat Sloan- I was so honoured to be able to meet her and her husband, they are both so sweet :)

The best part of this awesome collaboration is that everything I sewed x the Market was made with it. I totally enjoyed it and it spared me a lot of time, nerves and money thinking about weather I will be able to find the good quality, matching thread for my projects. And even the free motion quilting projects (that I was so afraid to embrace) were a joy!!!

And here are some pics of the projects I prepared for the Quilt Market....

What I totally adore about this collection of thread and my Indelible fabric collection is that you can get the perfect vision of the colors used in the fabric collection and choose the matching solids or blenders to play with.

You can choose between the large: 12 spool thread box - (1094 yds each) in 40 WT cotton thread or the small: 10 small spools thread box (164 yds each) in 40 WT cotton thread
And I think, that 40 WT thread is the most versatile one, as you can use it for all your sewing and quilting projects. And the quality? It's the best. Made in Italy ;)
And you can hear what I think about that in this video clip my hubby made...pardon my English and excitement that I just couldn't hide ;)Unfortunately, the video isn't showing a lot of the Quilt Market, only part of my the Aurifil schoolhouse presentation, the sample spree and the end of the Market, the last seen before we left...but Art Gallery fabrics is preparing the booth coverage ;)
